Would stay again!

Enjoyed my stay here and would stay again. Walking distance to the downtown stretch and beautiful harbor views. As typical there is no AC and only a sheet is provided as cover on the bed. There was a standing fan tho, and the balcony was a great addition!

Gorgeous town of Jelsa walking distance with all the Croatian charm and beauty we had hope For. Room was clean A/C worked great for those hot summer Croatian days and nights. Overall property needs a good facelift- however views, scenery and wonderful clear pristine Adriatic sea water allow for leisurely swims make up for it! Would definitely return to this property. We gave it a chance for the price point and didn’t regret it!

It is a beautifully situated hotel with amazing views, but the rooms could be updated. We reported wall sockets hanging dangerously off the wall on the second day and nothing was done.

Disappointing hotel saved by views and location!

Overall this place was a bit of a disappointment. The whole resort is a bit sad and outdated. However the location is great and the views are stunning! I think the place relies on that to keep people coming back. The food was distinctly below average. The service is overall quite poor apart from one member of staff who checked us in at reception. (Really helpful guy with a shaved head). Didn’t get his name unfortunately but he is carrying his colleagues in terms of customer service. Went above and beyond to help us to our room and to give recommendations of where to go on the island. Aside from him, service is very poor! The rooms are clean, in fairness, so if you can cope with bad food and very, very outdated rooms then this is a decent base for a trip to Hvar. It’s a clean place to sleep in a brilliant location with exceptional views from the balcony. But nothing more than that.

Self catering apartment.

Please look after the pine trees and replant older ones. They are what make it such a lovely, calming environment. I understand it won a landscape architecture award when it was built. The blocks are well arranged on the hill and in the pine wood so the hotel complex's various apartment blocks cannot be seen from the other side of the bay. Large balcony and spacious apt so very comfortable. We didn't use pool, hotel restaurant or facilities.

I was excited to check out the hotel, seeing it often off Jelsa superbe "lungo mare" promenade. The management is putting an effort into renovating parts of the large complex of bungalows and town houses, but the single rooms building is in a pretty bad shape and is in a dire need of upgrade.

Cozy and Sunny place to be

The hotel building is an old construction, little renovation has been done. It is still a cozy and nice place to spend some summer days in. The breakfast and dinner offered by the hotel are abundant, however dinner quality needs improvement. Overall it was a pleasant stay and the hotel staff was very friendly and prompt to answer to our complaints. Unless they revamp it with modern amenities, I am afraid I wouldn't consider staying there again.

Awful.

Moved rooms on first day-due to howling dog next door and shower not working and nearly hitting me on the head!Reception staff were not apologetic,customer service was terrible. Wanted to spend as little time at the hotel as possible. Full of kids everywhere. Not a relaxing environment by the pool.Room hygeine was poor- not one fresh towel all holiday. Cleaner just picked up our dirty ones and hung them out to dry. Tried the breakfast on our first morning and vowed never to go back- rather eat sand for the week than eat at that 'buffet'.The only thing that saves this terrible hotel is the beautiful location it sits on. Jelsa is a gorgeous place so was gutted we were so unlucky with the hotel we picked.

Que dire le ressort est très bien situé. Nous avons eu les maisonnettes situées devant quasiment en front de mer. Très bon point, par contre ces petites maisonnettes semblent être ceux qui sont en plus mauvais état. Tous semblent venir d une autre époque les années 80 vue que j ai connu le sol les murs la moquette la télé cathodique qui a qu une chaîne en hertzien le téléphone qui est là sûrement pour le décors la salle de bain carrelé du sol au mur avec les mêmes carrelage. En ce qui concerne la propreté nous avons eu quelque insectes rien de méchant mais bon. Pour la restauration nous n avons pas essayé c est un buffet 20 euros adulte 10 enfant Je post quelques photos. Après il faut remettre tous dans le contexte Les prix sont super abordable le lieu est top pas de clim amis effectivement il fait plutôt frais malgré la période mi août, il y a des ventilateurs fournis ....

Do not book.

This hotel should have been renovated 20 years ago. Beautiful location though and so much potential. No AC. No wifi on the room. No hot water (broken water heater). Broken power sockets with live wires, no RCD. No smoke detectors. Full glass doors with non hardened glass. Pools were falling apart with a lot of sharp edges from broken tiles. Pools filled with sea water. Not family friendly. Most dishes in the restaurant could not be ordered (crossed out with a sharpie in the menu)
